Our Mission & Vision


Who We Are

The International Conscious Movement Teachers Association is an international professional network of qualified movement teachers from different schools who offer dance and movement practice as a path to freedom, connection and wholeness.

Practitioners trained or training to teach 5Rhythms®, BISO - Body in Soul,
freedomDANCE, Movement Medicine, Open Floor, Path of Azul, SomaSource or Soul Motion are all eligible for membership.

Created by teachers for teachers in 2013, the ICMTA is a not-for-profit organisation. We are led by our members and use dynamic governance (sociocracy) as our way of working - an innovative system that promotes collective intelligence and responsibility, in place of traditional power structures.

The ICMTA is registered in Belgium and has members across the world.

Our Vision

A world of embodied, open-hearted people participating fully in the dance of life.

Our Mission

Our mission is to build a strong and diverse peer community for teachers of conscious movement.

To support and challenge our members to develop and deliver their teaching with high professionalism and integrity in sustainable ways.

To inspire the cultivation of socially and environmentally responsible conscious dance communities worldwide.

To harness collective intelligence and creativity using sociocracy as our system of governance.

To be a place of belonging, connection and mutual support.

While we make every effort to ensure that the information on this site is accurate, we cannot guarantee that everything is up-to-date when you read it. Please check with us, or the ICMTA member concerned, if it is important.
